The Living Church
''The Living Church'' is a magazine based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, providing commentary and news on the Episcopal Church and the wider Anglican Communion. In continuous publication since 1878, it has generally been identified with the Anglo-Catholic wing of Anglicanism, and has been cited by national newspapers as a representative of that party. It absorbed a number of earlier Anglo-Catholic publications, including ''The American Churchman'', ''Catholic Champion'' (1901), and ''The Angelus'' (1904). Theologically and culturally, it tends to have a moderate-to-conservative slant.
